Indeed, the only thing worse than a fiery skin attack is not knowing the reason behind such a fierce reaction. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Unmistakable Signs<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We all know that animals lick and scratch themselves. However, if your pet can\u2019t seem to stop and continues to pick at certain areas, it\u2019s time to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rocklinranchvet.com\/forms\/appointment.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">schedule an appointment<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><b>Parts and Pieces<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During every <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rocklinranchvet.com\/veterinary-services\/pet-wellness.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wellness<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> exam, we try to get as many details as possible about your pet\u2019s diet, lifestyle, medical history, and environmental exposure. Understanding these components can lead to a more conclusive <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rocklinranchvet.com\/veterinary-services\/veterinary-diagnostics.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">diagnosis<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and affect the course of successful treatment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s always a good idea to observe your pet closely on a daily basis and to make notes that we can refer to if needed. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>The Itchy Six<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once we\u2019ve narrowed down the type, duration, and frequency of symptoms, we can focus on one of the following common culprits behind itchy pets:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Environmental<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. It\u2019s possible for a previously unaffected pet to adversely react to grass, thistles, or even types of plastic. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Parasitic. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sudden symptoms can be caused by <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rocklinranchvet.com\/blog\/pest-prevention-stay-ahead-of-fleas-and-heartworm\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">fleas<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, especially if your pet is allergic to flea saliva. Secondary infections can occur from excessive itching or biting. Mites are also blameworthy.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Allergic<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. While we can\u2019t cure the allergies of itchy pets, eliminating likely triggers can make your companion much more comfortable.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Nutritional<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Many commercial pet food ingredients can cause itchy skin. We\u2019re happy to help you fine tune your pet\u2019s diet. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Infectious<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Excessive grooming can be caused by fungal, bacterial, or yeast infections. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Neurogenic<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Although not common, itchy pets can sometimes be caused by problems with the nervous system. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Remedies for Itchy Pets<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After examining your pet\u2019s skin and discussing possible triggers, we may design a treatment plan that incorporates the following:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Soaking in ground oatmeal or epsom salt (depending on the reason for itchy skin)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Increasing water intake <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Changing to wet or moist food<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bathing your pet with lukewarm water can help soothe dry skin (avoid hot air from blow dryers). We can make recommendations for hypoallergenic shampoos and conditioners. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Oils such as fish oil or flaxseed oil are high in omega-3 fatty acids and are often effective against symptoms<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prescribing certain <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rocklinranchvet.com\/veterinary-services\/veterinary-pharmacy.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">medications<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, such as antihistamines or steroids<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Exploring alternative treatments, such as laser therapy<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Let us Help<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A perfunctory <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rocklinranchvet.com\/blog\/599-2\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">online search<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> yields thousands of suggestions for itchy pets.
